Home Study Options

Our Home Study courses are ideal for students who would like to train with us but who are unable to attend our weekend courses. In addition to home study, the courses include a coaching session and a tutorial both of which take place in our N. W. London office any weekday between 9.00am - 7.00pm. As on our weekend courses students have two options to choose from:

The home-study support materials includes a manual (on-line study guide) explaining the techniques, where to apply them, and how they can be put together in a sequence. Successful home study using the DVD and the manual will enable you to gain the maximum benefit for when you come for your coaching session. In addition to studying these materials, we advise that you take a hands-on approach so that you develop a good feel for the relevant anatomy, especially for the skeletal landmarks that we use in seated acupressure.

Prior to your coaching session you will be required to complete and return the Home study assessment paper.

Coaching Sessions

During your coaching session you will work with an experienced trainer to review and refine all the techniques that you have studied at home. The aim of the session will be to ensure that you have all the tools that you need to carry out safe and effective seated acupressure without exhausting or injuring yourself. Advanced level students will also have time for additional marketing advice.

Documented Practices

All the documented practices should be carried out after you have taken your coaching session. For each practice you will be expected to give an effective screening (as described in your manual) and simply to get your recipient to provide their name, the date and a short comment about how they feel after their massage. We advise that you practice on at least 10 different people and that your practices be completed within 6 months of the training. Foundation level.
